About

Let's do this differently! Everyone dreads having to write these bios so let's make it count! Let's start with some fun facts about me, just so you know who you will be connecting with....let's go!

* I am originally from NYC (The Bronx).
* My favorite color is blue.
* I believe in giving grace to people...we all need that.
* I love Yorkies.
* I love to dye my hair red.
* Sometimes I like to drive faster than the posted speed limit. LOL

Now, let's get to the REAL information!....check me out below.
__________________________________________________________________________________
I am licensed in Maryland and the District of Columbia with 20 years of professional work experience. I have experience in helping clients with stress and anxiety, coping with addictions, motivation, self esteem, and confidence, & depression. I believe in treating everyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion. I will tailor our dialog and treatment plan to meet your unique and specific needs. Taking the first step to seeking a more fulfilling and happier life takes courage. I am here to support you in that process.

IMPORTANT INFORMATION:
1.) I check messages 1x in the morning and 1x in the evening (Monday - Friday). If you hear from me out of that window, you lucked up and caught me! ;-) But in all seriousness, please make a note that messages will be answered during those times.

2.) PLEASE NOTE: I am currently booked until July 10th. Starting July 10th, my available hours will be from 9am-6pm, Monday through Friday.
